This is the second part of my conversation with Dr. Evinerlean Blakney. We had such a great time we accidentally recorded our longest episode yet! I hope you enjoy it!
As a first-generation college graduate, keynote speaker, podcaster, and founder of multiple businesses, Dr. Evingerlean Blakney shared her incredible journey of becoming a serial entrepreneur.
We delved into the unique challenges faced by first-generation college students, particularly at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Predominantly White Institutions (PWIs). Dr. Blakney opened up about her personal experiences, including the loss of her grandfather during her first year of college and the internal struggles of choosing a major and planning for the future. Dr. Blakney's story is a testament to the power of resilience and adaptability. She discussed the realities of entrepreneurship, including the highs and lows, the financial challenges, and the need for persistence. We also explored the concept of diversifying income streams, both as an entrepreneur and as an employee.
